When it comes to storage, small and medium businesses have a lot in common with large enterprises. Just like the Fortune 400, they need to ensure that data is backed up, retrievable and secure, and that data access complies with governmental regulations. Unfortunately, if you are a small business owner you also cope with some challenges the big guys don't have, budgets are small and your IT staff, if you even have one, may not have storage-specific expertise.

Picolight Launches Long-Wavelength Optical Transceivers
February 4, 2002
By Optically Networked Staff
Picolight Inc. said it is making available the first of its Extensus family of long-wavelength (1310 nm) optical transceivers that extend the performance advantages of the company's volume enterprise optics to the metropolitan-access network and optical Ethernet applications.
Picolight's new family of 1310 nm transceivers combines the company's proven pluggable packaging with 20 km reach optical technology to affordably, simply and efficiently bridge the "optical bandwidth chasm" in the access network.
The first product in the Extensus family is a Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver that delivers 1.06 Gbps or 1.25 Gbps over single-mode fiber for Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-LX and Fibre Channel 100-SM-LC-L applications.
The PL-XPL-00-L13 SFP transceiver provides metro-access and optical Ethernet equipment manufacturers with the advantages commonly associated with enterprise optics: hot pluggability, increased density, lower power, and "no-compromise" performance. Systems that use these modules can achieve four times greater port density as compared with existing optical transceivers, officials said.
The PL-XPL-00-L13 is now being tested by select customers for deployment supporting communications over 10 km to 20 km distances.
Picolight's Extensus family builds upon the company's short-wavelength solutions, but targets the delivery of affordable bandwidth in point-to-point applications such as Ethernet-in-the-First-Mile (EFM). The product family will include a full range of high-performance, low-power, extended-reach interconnect solutions at 1, 2, 2.5 and 10 Gbps.
The PL-XPL-00-L13 transceiver is available in sample quantities, and is scheduled to enter volume production by the end of the second calendar quarter of this year. The transceiver is priced at $150 per unit in OEM quantities of 1,000.
